Its central character, \u003cstrong\u003ePink\u003c\/strong\u003e, is a rock star who gradually builds a psychological wall around himself to become isolated from the outside world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach trauma symbolically becomes another “brick”: the death of Pink's father during the war, an overprotective mother, authoritarian schooling, troubled relationships and the excesses of fame. This metaphor connects the entire record and provides the framework for songs including \u003cem\u003eAnother Brick in the Wall\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eMother\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eHey You\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eComfortably Numb\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA real wall built during the concerts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePink Floyd took the concept considerably further during \u003cstrong\u003eThe Wall\u003c\/strong\u003e concerts of 1980-1981. As the show progressed, a huge wall was gradually constructed \u003cstrong\u003ebetween the band and the audience\u003c\/strong\u003e, eventually concealing almost all of the musicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stage set therefore became a spectacular physical representation of the album's central theme: isolation. The wall eventually collapsed at the end of the concert, turning the staging itself into an integral part of the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGerald Scarfe and the visual world of The Wall\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe visual identity of \u003cem\u003eThe Wall\u003c\/em\u003e is inseparable from British illustrator and cartoonist \u003cstrong\u003eGerald Scarfe\u003c\/strong\u003e. His angular, deliberately distorted drawing style created the characters and creatures associated with the project, including the teacher, the mother and the famous marching hammers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScarfe also contributed animations used during the concerts and later in the 1982 film \u003cem\u003ePink Floyd – The Wall\u003c\/em\u003e, directed by \u003cstrong\u003eAlan Parker\u003c\/strong\u003e and starring \u003cstrong\u003eBob Geldof\u003c\/strong\u003e as Pink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e💡 Did you know?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe idea of the “wall” partly grew from \u003cstrong\u003eRoger Waters' increasing discomfort with Pink Floyd's huge stadium audiences\u003c\/strong\u003e. During a 1977 concert in Montreal on the \u003cem\u003eIn the Flesh\u003c\/em\u003e tour, a confrontation with a spectator ended with Waters spitting at him. Disturbed by his own behaviour and by the growing distance between the band and its audience, Waters began imagining a physical separation: \u003cstrong\u003ebuilding a wall between the musicians and the crowd\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9 x 9 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e embroidered patch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttachment:\u003c\/strong\u003e iron-on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLicence:\u003c\/strong\u003e official Pink Floyd merchandise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pink Floyd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57175582998854,"sku":"pa1104","price":5.79,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0924\/6346\/4774\/files\/pa1104.webp?v=1787321925","url":"https:\/\/musikmachine.com\/en\/products\/ecusson-pink-floyd-the-wall-1","provider":"MusikMachine RockShop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
